Hey FW - my fear isn't so much when will they show, although I do expect they'll be a little late, my worry is that with the cold temps in those tributaries and the lower salinity will produce a poor spawning season. I've read a couple books and studies (I'm going to look for the links) that say that few females will attempt to spawn if the conditions are poor, causing another low young of the year count based on real low numbers of spawning fish. Not how it will impact this year but 3-5 years down the road. I am now biologist either but 0+0 is still 0, knowhatimean??
